Some stuff that could fix the rampant cheating pretty quick, especially in a f2p game:

1. 2-Step-Verification when you create your account with your handy (like the google-authenticator on android systems).
2. Report-function in game (is usually mandatory in these type of games, so you can report someone if you see something fishy)
3. Hardware and phonenumber bans (will be the hardest to get around that once you´re banned... will prevent 99% of all cheaters coming back again).

@MjNaise nice ideas but #1 is easily bypassable. #2 is great if they actually have people who know what they're looking at and actually look at reports. hopefully there's no useless "report for abusive chat" option which is stupid to begin with but only further wastes resources of the company on something the player could have just blocked for.#3 is essentially #1 + hardware bans so the #1 point you made in #3 is explained in my reply already. Hardware bans are definitely harder to get around and I support those.

@allidwastaken You seem to be avoiding the point of what I said as well. Don't just read the replies to my posts, read what I actually said. If you still don't understand, I don't know what to say -- I already explained my position countless times.

Even if you provide proof it doesn't make the statement "we need a better anticheat" any more true. It would fail to have demonstrated the reason why this anticheat is is so poor, thus not giving any reason to push for "a better" one.

League of Legends is designed in a way that no cheat anyone has that can be created for that game would really be useful. What people have done (if not entirely, at least primarily) is use exploits like when you could walk into an enemy spawn with Twitch and spam the Blade of the Ruined King on people 100 times at once so they instantly die.
